Patient Experiences

✅ Summary of Positive Reviews

The positive reviews for Lutheran Hospital highlight the exceptional care and compassion exhibited by the staff. Patients frequently note the attentiveness and friendliness of employees, from registration to medical procedures. Specific staff members like those in ultrasound and lab techs receive praise for their professionalism and care. Many cite that staff members go beyond their duties to ensure patient comfort, with acts of kindness such as offering prayers or providing warming blankets. Overall, the hospital is commended for creating a reassuring and supportive environment, significantly contributing to an outstanding patient experience.

❌ Summary of Negative Reviews

The negative feedback centers around a specific case involving postoperative care. The patient recounts issues such as the premature removal of medical devices and a feeling of being rushed during discharge, despite contradicting instructions from the surgeon. This resulted in feelings of unprofessionalism and inadequate care. Additionally, there was a sense of privacy invasion due to multiple staff members entering the room unexpectedly. These experiences led to significant dissatisfaction, contrasting the positive aspects previously experienced by the patient at the hospital.
